WOODLAND STAG'S STERN} CHALLENGE
WHAT'S THAT MAY SURPRISE
(By RAPIER).
NIGHT Star is undoubtedly the best pony of the five probable
starters in the Queensland Autumn Champions over 14 miles, a distance for which he holds the track record. Mr. Dan- bar's Woodland Stag is, however, a serious rival, and What's That may cause a surprise after the excellent form be displayed in the Freemantle, St. Leger over a longer distance early last month. Lady Peel's Lacy' Glitters and Mr. E. L. Hosie's The Giraffe are the two other probable starters.
Yesterday Night Star did an impressive mile gallop with Mr. Butler in the saddle. Moving nicely and by no means distressed he docked 1.59.3, the last being in. 1.27.2 and the last quarter in 0.27.3. Mr. Butler will have the ride on Saturday.
